Look on the bright side- at least lots of other people who ordered after ou, benefited from your experience. When I ordered my M-sport package, the dealer kept saying that there was no place to select the paddle shifters. I insisted that he hand-write it on the order sheet. It turns out I was right. When he entered the order, he did put in the paddle shifters correctly.

So- you took one for the team, but you saved a lot of other people a lot of aggravation!
